hI folks, my 04 is supposed to have the Z51 package , and I was looking at her the other day (still resting for the winter) and was looking for the power steering cooler that it is supposed to have. Can someone tell me where it is located and what it looks like? thanks

HI there,
It is located at the front frame rail, behind the radiator fans.
This is the standard cooler. Your Z51 cooler will have fins and look like a small radiator.
Allthebest, c4c5

Yep, just lean in from the passenger side and look down to the steering rack, its right there (in the way)

I just had to have the 4" rubber connector hose replaced (connects the coolant line to the cooler) since it developed a leak. Funky clips holding it on required dealer to replace hose and clamps at an outrageous cost of $120! So if you see a little puddle of coolant under the front end, you may want to check here first.
